Chapter 275: The new season lineup is implemented!

Subsequently, Wang Xiao used the Wizards' own No. 30 pick to select Drummond Green.
This is also a choice that people do not understand. Green was a power forward when he was in college. Although he has a strong body and a strong confrontation ability, he is only 2.01 meters tall, so he can only act as a swingman. The position of the small forward and the power forward changes back and forth.
What the Wizards need most is the swingback swingman. George, Leonard, Jamison, and Parsons are all players who can serve as small forwards and power forwards. What's the point of choosing another Green?
However, the first round of the 30th pick itself was not high in value, and Wang Xiao's choice did not attract much attention.
In the second round of the draft, the Wizards still have the final pick. This time Wang Xiao finally chose a big player, center 2 meters tall, Robert Sackley, but all reached the last draft right of the draft conference. The potential of the players that can be selected is just a cheap labor that fills the bench lineup.
At this point, the Wizards' 12-year draft conference is over.
Lam on the 13th, Green on the 30th, and Sackley on the 60th.
...
One day later, the free market was officially opened. The Wizards first published several renewal messages on the official website. The team renewed the contract with Patrick Beverly and reached a three-year renewal agreement of 24 million. At the same time, he renewed the contract with the veteran's base salary. One year in Misson, the three other rookie players selected have also completed the signing and formally become the Wizards players.
As for the team's starting center Javier McGee, there was no news of renewal.
A day later, McGee's agent publicly stated that McGee will officially enter the free market.
This time, many people's eyes were on McGee.
Although the performance was slightly inferior to the 11th year of Jordan Jr., McGee’s ability to protect the frame after he was the Wizards’ starting center for 12 years is also very rare in the league. There is no doubt that it can be worthy of a 10 million annual salary. Contracts, many teams that lack guards in the team are eager to open bids.
Subsequently, the Wizards did not have any news. Until July 8, the freezing period ended, the Wizards had a new move.
The team sent Beverly, who just renewed the contract, together with the No. 13 rookie selected this year to the Utah Jazz. The price paid by the Utah Jazz is the 13-year first-round pick and Raja Bell.
This is just an unimportant deal for the Wizards, because Beverly is a substitute for the Wizards, and rookie Lamb is likely to be a substitute.
When people saw it, they were only a little surprised, and suddenly realized.
It turned out that the Wizards chose Lamb to trade with the Jazz.
Since the loss of Deron, the Jazz have always had a weak back. The Harrison traded by Deron is not a point guard worth training.
Beverly's offense is slightly worse than Harrison's, and even slightly worse, but the defense can get rid of Harrison a few streets. His defensive ability is very important for the Jazz, which is famous for defense.
auzw.com Similarly, Lamb's more comprehensive offensive shooting guard is also a talent that the Jazz needs more.
In contrast, a first round that won’t be too high, plus a player who is too old to stay competitive and has serious conflicts with his teammates, disrupting the locker room atmosphere. For the Jazz It's really a bargain price.
Wang Xiao didn't actually want Bell. When he was young, his defense was so sloppy. Now that he is old and declining, no one can keep up. The defensive end is a big colander, but the Jazz bite to death, if the Wizards If you don’t want Bell, then you won’t get through this transaction and you will have no choice but to eat this not too big junk contract.
Bell’s contract is close to four million, and Beverly Galum’s salary is close to ten million. The salary is not equal, but the salary space of the Jazz is currently very healthy. The team’s largest contract is Al Jefferson’s. 15 million US dollars, except that no one person has a contract annual salary of more than 10 million, there is no problem to directly eat the unequal salary.
This deal, Wang Xiao had negotiated with the Jazz before the draft. At the time of the draft, he also chose the Jazz's named Lamb. Relying on the value of Beverly's first sign and then change, he finally got a Next season may be the top fifteenth overall pick.
Why is it possible? Because of the arrival of Beverly and Lamb, the Jazz's strength must be improved. Next season, the Jazz may be stronger than another time and space, and the victory and record rankings may also be higher.
In another time and space, the Jazz, who won 43 wins and 39 losses in 13 years, got the 14th pick. It is just possible to intercept Hua de Tokumbo in advance. If you win more games, it will likely fall out of the top 15 in order.
But there is no way. Now that all major teams have eaten a lot of wisdom, no one is willing to use the draft right to trade with Wang Xiao, especially the team with a poor record and a high draft pick, as long as Wang Xiao When he came to the door, he killed a sentence.
"Want my first round? Change one of Curry, George, Leonard, and Thompson, otherwise avoid talking."
This guy has made a lot of money, and the selected players can all be worth the money. Now that the Wizards are so wicked, how many other All-Star teams are you choosing for him?
...
As for McGee, in theory, the value of signing and then changing is higher than that of Beverly, but it is not easy to make it in reality, because McGee’s new contract starts at least 12 million per year, and the salary in the league is like the Jazz Wizards. There are very few healthy teams. Basically, signing and then changing to the other team will inevitably be accompanied by a player with equal pay.
Next year, the contracts of George and others will expire in Curry, and the Wizards' salary space will immediately become very tight. How can Wang Xiao leave a big contract burden on the team?
Therefore, Wang Xiao can only release McGee just like letting little Jordan go.
McKee, Beverly and Lamb left, and Bell came to the team. At this time, the Wizards' lineup has reached 14 people, close to saturation.
Point guards: Stephen Curry, Isaiah Thomas.
Shooting guards: Klay Thompson, Raja Bell.
Small forwards: Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, Chandler Parsons, Caron Butler, Jimmy Butler.
Power forwards: Antoine Jamison, Drummond Green, Yi Jianlian.
Centers: Hassan Whiteside, Robert Sackley.
At this time, Wang Xiao informed the team management that the Wizards' trade and recruitment was officially completed. This lineup is the lineup that the Wizards will continue to rush to the championship next season.
